Nosferatu
Staring out from the darkness
How I long to be with you
But you will never see me
Blind to everything impure
Glaring into the light
How I’d love to steal this from you
This curse of purity
Forgiven of your mortal sin
As I lie awake every day
Drowning in my own
I've lost so much time
It feels like centuries
But time is endless for me
Until your face stopped the moon
I thought I was staring into the sun
I felt my skin warm whilst in your presence
As I linger in these frozen shadows
Then you...
How I long to be with you
But you will never see me
Blind to everything impure
Glaring into the light
How I’d love to steal this from you
This curse of purity
Forgiven of your mortal sin
As I lie awake every day
Drowning in my own
I've lost so much time
It feels like centuries
But time is endless for me
Until your face stopped the moon
I thought I was staring into the sun
I felt my skin warm whilst in your presence
As I linger in these frozen shadows
Then you...

Baptism
Hotter this time
So much hotter
Relief in the burn
The spike of the nerves
Sets me free
Carry the whole fucking thing up the hill
Just to suffer the next
When it rains...
That's what they say
Isn't it?
So many apologies
So many condolences
Still went through it alone
Didn't I?
They all burn anymore
Tears of anger
Of love, betrayed...lost
Of rage
Hotter this time
Melting into oblivion
It really is the loss
That sets you free
Freedom is so very...

So many condolences
Still went through it alone
Didn't I?
They all burn anymore
Tears of anger
Of love, betrayed...lost
Of rage
Hotter this time
Melting into oblivion
It really is the loss
That sets you free
Freedom is so very...

Judas Complex
Another night at this table
Same drink, different taste
Another time I slipped by a fable
Same anger, different pain
Smoke it to the filter
The bitterness seeps in like cancer
Feel the sting a little clearer
The question of you and I
And the answer
Say it!
Say it again!
One more time!
You traitor!
Another night at this table
And I feel this is more than just a stepping stone
Pray to the ghosts who once sat here
I stop and think, this is my cornerstone, my tombstone
Strike the bowl and...

Ye of Little Faith
A slave to sin
I was only seeking the truth
Seems you're a villian
No matter the proof
We spin these tales
And hope for the best
Redemption fails
Just like the rest
Through sweat, blood and tears
I've survived the years
All of your prayers
Fell on deaf ears
Choking on the words
I don't even believe in
You were alive before
Now just a box, again
Pardon me, I just can't stay
A lie to live, a life of death
Prayers to the air to see them someday
A slave, again
Through...

Demons
Pick up the pieces
And throw them away
(There, you're together again)
I didn't lose you
You shed off of me
Bitter and sweet
Watch what you say
I never needed you
Just a reason to leave
What if I told you
I'm the price you pay
What if I told you
Now you're better off
It never ceases to be true
Just the beauty of me and you
A blessing and a curse
Fucking good luck Chuck
They say, in the eye of the beholder
Wrong time, right place
Always seemed stuck
They're moving on
I'm only...
And throw them away

Pitter Patter
Choking and silent
Staying quiet and docile
Fluttering out of the way
Pitter-patter
Patter-pit
Blinking off the dust
Realign and take flight
Chasing the smoke
Follow the light
Pitter-patter
Pit
Here am I
Guide me
Let me rest
Here I am
Appease me
Feed me
Choking and silent
Die to me and live anew
A worm in the dirt
Till the day you flew
Pitter-patter
Pittering away in the darkness
Safety or death is all i see
When all the light is...
Staying quiet and docile
Fluttering out of the way
Pitter-patter
Patter-pit
Blinking off the dust
Realign and take flight
Chasing the smoke
Follow the light
Pitter-patter
Pit
Here am I
Guide me
Let me rest
Here I am
Appease me
Feed me
Choking and silent
Die to me and live anew
A worm in the dirt
Till the day you flew
Pitter-patter
Pittering away in the darkness
Safety or death is all i see
When all the light is...

Play Thing
Even, in front of the shadows,
You can remain unseen
We'll wonder why
Why the future left us
Why we were left here
Staring at the white flag
Placed before us
With no hands to hold it
Tied behind our backs
Left staring
Wondering why
Knowing how
I spill my heart into a mirror
And watch you stare in wonder
You play this song
Over and over and again
I smile and dance
I suffer through the pain
I pull the string
You shove me to the side
I try to play my own
You leave me here...
You can remain unseen
We'll wonder why
Why the future left us
Why we were left here
Staring at the white flag
Placed before us
With no hands to hold it
Tied behind our backs
Left staring
Wondering why
Knowing how
I spill my heart into a mirror
And watch you stare in wonder
You play this song
Over and over and again
I smile and dance
I suffer through the pain
I pull the string
You shove me to the side
I try to play my own
You leave me here...

Ramble Unto Me
Spinning and spinning
Delusions tossel through perspectives
Rattling around my skull
Give me reason, give me incentive
Rhyme and reason betray the truth
The raw feeling of pain and pleasure
Rage and insecurity
Take me, take me
Take my purity
Your lessons never taught a thing
Aside from the revelation
You were never listening
To a damn thing
Give me purpose, give me anything
Silence and mockery alone
Take my hand and lead me
Show me
Bleed me
Paper wings of angels
Falling harder when they...
